Tumelo Mothotoane is joined by @IkhweloHC and representatives of #CredoMutwaVillage to unpack the role of traditional healers and medicine in mainstream health.

The functioning of the forest ecosystem is complex and often not easy to understand. This includes the mycorrhiza, the living community between plants and fungi. This symbiosis is illustrated with an educational film of the nationalparks Bavarian Forest and Šumava.

You'd find it hard to meet a greater enthusiast for farm biodiversity than farm manager Phineas Kibaka. In a tour around a farm in central Kenya he explains how he farms with wildlife following the Integrated Farm Management principles of LEAF (Linking Environment and Farming).
This film, one of eleven, is being used to share good agricultural practice in Africa.
LEAF (http://www.leafuk.org), Waitrose, African fresh produce exporters and Green Shoots Productions (http://www.green-shoots.org) have been working with support of the UK Department for International Development's Food Retail Industry Challenge (FRICH) fund to share good agricultural practice between African farmers.

How can we feed the world—today and tomorrow?

The biggest players in the food industry—from pesticide pushers to fertilizer makers to food processors and manufacturers—spend billions of dollars every year not selling food, but selling the idea that we need their products to feed the world. But, do we really need industrial agriculture to feed the world? Can sustainably grown food deliver the quantity and quality we need—today and in the future? Our first Food MythBusters film takes on these questions in under seven minutes. So next time you hear them, you can too.

Think Ghana Series: Agriculture sector 2015

Among the thousands of hunters enlisted by the Nigerian army to track and capture Boko Haram fighters, one stands out from the crowd.

Aisha Bakari Gombi towers over her band of hunters, one of the few women who has joined the fight against one of the deadliest armed groups in Africa.

With her shotgun slung over her shoulder, she ventures into the scrub of Borno, the northeastern province of Nigeria long plagued by Boko Haram attacks, hunting down their fighters.

Her bravery and keen hunting abilities have earned her the title of 'Queen Hunter'.

Government troops are quick to call on Aisha for her skills but slow to reward her efforts financially.

While she is unable to liberate many more captives held by Boko Haram due to a lack of resources, she will never stop trying.

Dive into the multiple worlds of Aisha, a commander, a hunter and a wife.

This video explores the different perspectives of food providers on agroecology and the calls from social movements to embed agroecoogy in the struggle for food sovereignty. It focuses on the Declaration of International Forum for Agroecology, which has been advanced by social movements to claim agroecology as a bottom up practice, science and movement and the most important pathway towards a most just, sustainable and viable food and agriculture system.

Visit: http://www.foodsovereignty.org..../forum-agroecology-n to read the declaration and www.agroecologynow.com for more information on this project.
